Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of cranio-facial sexual dimorphism in a Central European sample of known sex.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that it is better to analyse apportionable parts of the cranium rather than theCrania as a whole, and that the greatest accuracy in determining sex was found in the region of the upper face and the midsagittal curve of the vault.
Journal ArticleDOI

Limb bones asymmetry and stress in medieval and recent populations of Central Europe

TL;DR: It is proposed that people from this medieval population were subjected to lower developmental stress than the recent sample, and the recent population had higher FA and DA values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Skull shape asymmetry and the socioeconomic structure of an early medieval central European society.

TL;DR: It is suspected that the FA reflects a more varied population of castle females as a consequence of patrilocality, although environmental stress remains a possibility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface facial modelling and allometry in relation to sexual dimorphism.

TL;DR: The aim was to analyse the relationship between size variability and shape facial variability of sexual traits in the young adult Central European population and to construct average surface models of adult males and females.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of methods to determine sex by evaluating the greater sciatic notch: Visual, angular and geometric morphometrics.

TL;DR: The analysis of three different methods for sex assessment of the greater sciatic notch suggested that higher morphological variation among the sexes is independent of the methodological approach and the major sexual variation was determined to be located on its posterior border.
